In a stunning turn of events, the PSB received a spreadsheet from Entergy outlining how it can replace the condenser, fully fund the decommissioning account and make a huge profit while running Vermont Yankee safely and without a single problem over the next 20 years.

The Executive board of Entergy is shown as receiving a total compensation package of $1 each, with no benefits, no bonuses for the entire 20 year run of the plant.  Further, all employees at VY will receive their full-time pay for another 10 years, or until they find other work (whichever is sooner).

However a skeptical NRC may put the kibosh on all of this saying that Vermont Yankee is a decrepit old plant that should have been shut down shortly after it opened due to inherent design flaws that it knew about then.  The NRC is also expected to order the closure of almost every nuclear power plant in the nation as being unsafe.
